Can set a custom date format with $ gconf-editor search: applet_ Find clock applet among about 5 applets. Change for example 2006-04-16 16:39 Sun w15 custom_format: "%x %H:%M %a w%W" format: "custom" Clock format changes immidiately.
When format is "custom", Clock applet, right click: Preferences shows a dialog to edit custom format. This only works once, after that it must be edited in gconf-editor. Copy date does not work. I did not yet find a way to put short localized date in it: "%x %X" shows seconds, even if show seconds is not selected, and even if 'ls' shows only minutes with the same LC_DATE. -- Clock can't display international date format https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/34603 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
